I decided to do this blog as I’m giving up smoking and fully intend to succeed this time, otherwise I’m going to look a right knob :) I’ve already done a Flickr account with my nail bling in, but fancied expanding it with a blog as sometimes I like to babble on about irrelevant rubbish.

I’ve never really been into doing my nails apart from occasionally colouring them in a particularly obnoxious shade of blue or purple, sometimes even black or silver, and I mostly used nail polish remover for removing thermal paste off heatsinks, but I’m hoping that poncing about with my nails a lot will prevent me from doing cigarettey things. So I’m spending my cigarette money on nail varnish, and I seem to be getting a lot of it as well. I’ve even bought top coat and everything. Really, I’m just replacing one addiction for another but at least I can take pretty pictures of this addiction \o/

So very, very blue. This is Orly Lunar Eclipse from the Cosmic FX collection and it really is smashing.

Orly Lunar Eclipse, it's scrummy

It's an electric blue shimmer with a purple duochrome that hardly shows up in this picture, but it is there. I loved looking at the colour but I got cravey and fidgety so Konaded it all.

Not sure about these random silver squiggles

I used Konad plate m70 and MUA Shade 11 (a silver available from Superdrug. A bottle costs £1) and randomly stamped all over the place. I like it but I don't like it, it's very confusing. Still, that blue looks the bollocks :)
